dash warning lights coming on unnecessarily

Purchased the car used so I don't know the mechanical background. However 2 days into owning it the dash lights up like a Christmas tree and I cant get up over 60 km/hr. I come from a Wrangler and I am disappointed I traded in for this. Not a great experience in the 2 days I have owned it..... It's still in the shop.

Avenger V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 56,352 miles

Bought this car used with about 32 to 35,000 miles on it. I've had it less than two years. A few months ago some weird electronic stuff started happening. I would get the oil changed and then a week later my dash would notify me that the oil needed changing. This happened EVERY time I had the oil changed. One of my tires is constantly low but never goes flat, so that light on the dash stays on all the time. When driving around some corners, usually on off ramps my brake light on the dash would come on. On Friday the 13th 2016 as I was getting off one of the off ramps when the brake light would normally come on, the electronic stability control light came on and the Throttle Control light came on and then the car went into limp mode. I could not drive more than 10-15 mph and rough idle. I limped into a gas station and shut the car off a few times and restarted. It kept happening so I had to get it towed. After some research I see this is a common problem with some Dodge models, enough that this should really be a recall. The Dealer is charging me right around $700 to replace the throttle body, a part I've found on the internet for less than $200. I was told it would only take about a half hour to install. So why so expensive??? Dealers are complete rip offs!!
